Side project: Beech

Beech is a small project I made with my designer friend, Luc. It’s an iPhone app which allows people to share the beer they love with their friends. Luc designed the app, and I built the entire stack. The client is an iOS app, and the API is a Rails app. It is available on github: https://github.com/pjambet/beech-server.
